 * Comment – I agree with Janke, but I wouldn't say it's dust. The bright spots are probably part of the paint, their intensity is perhaps amplified by the image processing and the lighting conditions. Also the color balance may be exaggerated (compare to earlier upload). Bammesk (talk) 02:21, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd presume light reflections. Note how they're much more intent on the right. Paint is three-dimensional, so, unless you kind of lighting-stack in an analogue to focus stacking multiple photographs of a painting, you're going to get some issues. This is particularly bad, though. I don't think it's anything against the official photographer; paintings are genuinely difficult things to reproduce. I'd volunteer to go over it, but, honestly, I currently have a backlog of about 12 images, waiting desperately for something I put up to reach quorum. I'm not really interested in taking on another huge task until things start passing. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.1% of all FPs 23:00, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
